foto con il telefono

You've probably been wondering where I've disappeared to. Sorry. It's just that I've been playing around with my new camera phone and enjoying a fun app called Instagram that allows you to shoot medium format photos from your iPhone, add filters and effects, and then share them on the web in matter of seconds. Here are a few test shots. Which do you prefer, viewing-wise, the bigger or the medium size?

ponte Matteotti

Built under the Fascist regime, this bridge was initially called Ponte del Littorio (in ancient Rome a Lictor was an officer attending the consul or other magistrate, who bore the fasces, and executed sentences on offenders). But after the fall of the dictatorship, it was renamed after the socialist member of parliament Giacomo Matteotti, murdered near the bridge by an armed squad of extreme right wing activists.
